I need to suppress items so I can get to things underneath them (because hide doesn't seem to do anything at all). However, while there is a simple right click menu item for suppression, I cannot find any way to unsuppress items. I can't right click on the item as it no longer exist in the side bar, and there doesn't seem to be any menu item anywhere for dealing with suppression. How do I get my stuff back?

Hey, since as a student you can get Creo 1.0, 2.0 and the Creo Elements/Pro 5.0 Schools Edition, I'd like to know what the differences are between Creo 2.0 and the Creo Elements/Pro 5.0 Schools Edition.Thanks!

Creo/Elements/Pro 5.0 is nothing but Pro/Engineer Wildfire 5.0 (only name has changed) where as..Creo 2.0 is the latest offering from PTC. major differences :1. ribbon interface in creo 2.0 (throught)2. easy to use (Creo 2.0)3. more advanced features.This document was generated from the following discussion: Differences Between Creo 2 and Creo Elements/Pro 5.0 Schools Edition

I am working on exercise 5 in How to model almost anything. I cannot get my section to close.What's the trick? Thanks

Getting Started with PTC CreoThis session has been created to introduce FIRST Teams to the same software our customers use, PTC Creo. The purpose of this session is to provide a guide for workshops and in-class curriculum which prepares teams to plan and create effective 3D solid models. We hope that the instruction given will help make your experience in product modeling successful.   Click Here to view the downloadable version of this video.   (view in My Videos)

Hi guys,Just signed up as I'm having no luck scouring the internet for anything on this issue.We've been using ProD for a number of years with no issues but recently having moved the Design department to new PCs they are experiencing graphical glitches when trying to draw simple shapesI've attached a screenshot of the issue and if anyone has any ideas as to how to solve then I'd be glad to hear them!I've tried the usual update graphics drivers/Windows updates but am a bit stuck.Thanks,Phil

Hey guys, i'm having a bit of trouble with my Creo 2.0It's Creo Parametric 2.0 student edition that i run on Parallels in windows 8 on my Mac but the screen is upside down. I've had a look at similar problem discussions on here however their solutions didn't work and was wondering if anyone could please help

​What an afternoon at the PTC Campus this past Saturday. The FIRST Tech Challenge Massachusetts Kickoff was hosted by PTC, with over 200 people in attendance. We had Mr. David Price from FIRST as our official emcee and opener (no one ignites a room like Mr. Price), followed by great presentations from John Stuart, PTC SVP of Global Academic Programs, Lisa Freed, iRobot STEM Outreach Coordinator and Don Bossi, President of FIRST. The PTC cafeteria was filled front to back with more people than I have ever seen in that room, kids, parents, teachers, mentors and pizza. Let’s not forget the pizza. Boxes and boxes of pizza!Following the 30 minute presentation, folks were able to attend two workshops of their choice on the following topics. The Customer Visit Center was at capacity with students and mentors just spilling out of all the rooms as they were able to meet PTC experts and learn about topics and solutions that can help them succeed in their FIRST challenges. Beginning 3D Modeling w

  FTC BLOCK PARTY! is played on a 12’x12’ square field with approximately 1’-high walls and a soft foam mat playing surface. Two randomly selected teams are paired together as an Alliance to play one match against a second Alliance. Alliances are designated as either “Red” or “Blue.”     (view in My Videos)  

We finished an exciting episode of PTC's ROBOTALK this Wednesday evening where we discussed how to assemble a robot from the kit of parts. The session began as usual with a video that introduced the concepts of the software kit of parts, assembly using these part files, analyzing the model for mass properties and simulation. Here is the introductory video: Video Link : 3446 After the video, we went through each of the concepts introduced in the video and emphasized important aspects and techniques. Mark Fischer led the discussion and demonstrated how to convert static constraints into kinematic constraints and vice-versa. Mark also showed how to calculate mass properties and how to create the center of gravity as a feature in an assembly. He finished by showing an analysis of a robot rolling down a ramp and tipping because the center of gravity was to far forward. Each of these segments will be posted as videos in the next few weeks.

We concluded the first ROBOTALK session on Creo Parametric last night just in time for the presidential debates. There were a host of attendees that joined us and stayed right to the end. In fact some of the teams asked if we could continue ROBOTALK so they wouldn't have to go watch the debates. Mark Fischer gave those teams some homework and told them to go to the following site and download the Creo Parametric Primer and then complete it during the debates. Here is the link to the primer:http://www.ptc.com/company/community/schools/projects.htm#creoI think that doing the Creo Parametric Primer during the debates would be like jogging with weights on your hands and legs or dribbling a basketball with your eyes closed. You might end up extruding the candidates or revolving their arguments, or maybe even assembling a resonable strategy for solving the deficit. If you were with us last night, you learned about EXTRUSIONS, REVOLVES, and ASSEMBLIES.The webinar began as they usually do with

Hi, Everybodyi'm not sure weather there is any problem with my appearance setting. the result of Transparency is as below picture.What is the problem?

I have downloaded the student creo and the First curriculum. All seemed to load fine. When I go to Select working directory, no files are there to work with. How do I get the practice models into the directory

I did not get an email confirmation after I hit SUBMIT. Thank you

I am having a devil of a time trying to find the Tetrix/Matrix part libraries! I found them last night but have no idea how I got there! What's worse? I forgot to bookmark the page!Thanks in advance,TM

Hi everyone,I have a Problem by 3d plotting a function.Unfortunally I don't know what the problem is about, I have 3 unit types.W / m²mdegZ-Axis should be W / m²x axis my axis degCould please anybody check my mathcad file and correct the error, or tell me what to do?In the second step I need to insert a constant surface into the plot, with the value of 100 W / m².I want to compare the curve from E.IR with the constant surface. Interesting isevery E.IR value which is above the limit of 100 W / m².Thanks a lot for your help!PS: Here you can see my worksheet, I also attached my mathcad file.Best Regards,Alexander

I am writing with reference to the creo agent startup error. Latest instal date for me was around a month ago, but after all of a sudden it stopped working with following error which I will add it to the string now. Since my college project has been started I need the solution to resolve this issue. PTC admins please do the needful. I tried all the preferred solution posted in this forum http://communities.ptc.com/message/206765#206765 but nevertheless the result is same with error I attached below.If some one can connect to my pc and see what is the problem I can mail the physical address!Hope to find solution soonRegardsPurushottam Kanchi
